Stream stability at highway structures / by Lagasse, Peter F.(Peter Frederick),1937-(CARDINAL)327627; United States.Federal Highway Administration.(CARDINAL)139839; Ayres Associates.(CARDINAL)328982;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 131-134)."This document provides guidelines for identifying stream instability problems at highway stream crossings and for the selection and design of appropriate countermeasures to mitigate potential damages to bridges and other highway components at stream crossings. It is a metricated update of the version published in 1991 under Contract No. DTFH61-89-C-00003. The HEC-20 manual covers geomorphic and hydraulic factors that affect stream stability and provides a step-by-step analysis procedure for evaluating stream stability problems. Guidelines and criteria for selecting countermeasures for stream instability problems are summarized, and the design of three countermeasures (spurs, guide banks, and check dams) is presented in detail. Conceptual design considerations for many other countermeasures are summarized"--Technical report documentation page.Sponsored by Office of Technology Applications, HTA-22, Federal Highway Administration, and performed by Ayres Associates, formerly Resource Consultants & Engineers, under contract to GKY and Assoc.,
